Abstract
Rapid advances in aircraft-engine design for higher powers have required corresponding improvements in antifriction bearings. From an intimate knowledge of the requirements the author presents a comprehensive outline of the progress made in bearing developments with particular reference to current practice. The discussion includes details of bearings for the following services: crankshaft, propeller thrust, rocker arm, supercharger, and controllable propeller.
